Zara Larsson announces ‘Midnight Sun’ album, tour

The title track will be available on June 13th

Global pop powerhouse Zara Larsson kicks her boldest era yet into overdrive with the announcement of her heavily anticipated new album Midnight Sun, set for release on September 26th via Sommer House/Epic Records. An exclusive run of merchandise and physical items, including limited edition signed CDs and autographed vinyl, are also available.

The ten-track album is set to feature recent single “Pretty Ugly” as well as new single and title track “Midnight Sun,” which is set for release on Friday, June 13th.

Created over the last year with frequent collaborator MNEK, alongside producers Margo XS and Zhone, as well as songwriter Helena Gao—Zara’s latest is a true tour-de-force, and her best work to-date. The album ripples with confidence, as it’s storytelling bursts with truth and vulnerability, plumbing the depth and growth of Zara’s artistry and journey over nearly 20 years in the public eye. It’s an album unafraid to show all sides of the 27-year-old: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, cocky, flippant, and uncertain, often in the same breath. The story begins with “Midnight Sun,” the first song written for the album.

“In thinking about this album, I thought, ‘What do I want to say? What do I want this to be?’ I really am proud of my Swedish pop heritage, so I wanted to write about a Swedish summer where the sun never goes down,” says Zara. “I wanted the whole album to feel like it’s a summer night and it never ends. And it doesn’t matter if it’s December: the summer night will be there for you. It’s waiting for you, it will come back for you, and you will come back for it.”

Zara Larsson recently kicked off the new era with the confident and rowdy “Pretty Ugly,” alongside an incredible music video directed by Charlotte Rutherford (PinkPanthress, Charli XCX, Ashnniko), and choreographed by Zoi Tatopoulos (FKA Twigz)—fierce, feral, and completely unapologetic.

With the news of Larsson’s fourth international album, the superstar announces her fall headlining European tour – the first official leg of her Midnight Sun Tour. The trek will kick off in Munich, Germany on October 28th at Zenith and will culminate in a hometown show at Avicii Arena in Stockholm, Sweden on November 28th.

Presales start on Wednesday, June 11th ahead of the general sale on Friday, June 13th at 10 am local time. Fans in the UK, Ireland and Germany who pre-order the album via the Larsson’s online store can access the pre-sale 24 hours early, starting on June 10th at 10 am local.

The European tour comes on the heels of Zara’s just-announced first-ever live dates in Australia and New Zealand for February 2026 with OneRepublic. Zara’s run of live shows in support of Midnight Sun officially kicks off with her opening slot on Tate McRae’s Miss Possessive Tour across North America, which begins on August 4th in Vancouver, BC, with stops along the way at major arenas like New York’s Madison Square Garden before culminated with back-to-back shows at The Forum in Los Angeles on September 26-27, in line with the album’s release.
